Okay, tell me if you think this is a good idea.
You know how us 'lacrosse and soccer moms' et al put sayings on their cars with that glass paint?

How about we put on our cars prior to the election...."George Felix Allen, Jr. is a racist. Vote for Jim Webb."

I'm going to put it on my van.

Thoughts?

1. Well, I like it, but I'm already convinced of that.
I'm not a good one to ask if your statement will change anyone's mind, because I don't know how people's minds are holding some of the ideas they must be to have put the current crop of idiots in charge.

:hug:

2. I wonder if it would change the votes of some folks who haven't
decided? Let's face it, not everyone is as interested or knowledgeable about politics as DUers.

4. Nice. Real Nice.
Throw me a bone here, I'm trying to edumacate the great unwashed.

On one window of the van I am putting "George Felix Allen, Jr. is a Racist"

On the other side. Vote for Jim Webb.


Yup. Gonna do it.

5. I dunno, midlo.
I think underpants is onto something there. As dreadful as it is to realize the evil in our midst, there are lots of folks in this area for whom being racist isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Hate to say it, but there it is.

6. The person who signs my paycheck (cough...cough...) was getting
all irritated today just because he was reading about the possibility of courts implementing bilingual signs in courtrooms. He made some assinine comments about how "they should go back to Mexico, learn English and go to jail." I said, "Nice, _________. You know, I don't think you should be saying this to me, your employee. That could be construed as discriminatory." Dumbass. WTF?

7. Love your spirit Mid ! However,
I'm having a problem with the word 'racist'.

How about "Vote Smart! Fire George Felix Allen, Jr, Hire Jim Webb"

Implies that Allen is a dumbass :evilgrin:

8. I like that, too! But, George Felix Allen, Jr. IS a racist.

9. Oh, I agree !
Just don't think we should pith off the racist swing voters :D

Oh, and I thought of another:

"George Allen voted 3 times to give himself a raise and voted Zero to raise wages for Virginia's working poor. Jim Webb thinks that's deplorable!"
